Finding the right soundtrack for a scene is still weirdly hard.
Adithya is trying to fix that.
Introducing taan, it watches your video and generates music around how the scene actually feels.

glad to have @buildonnodeops as our supporting credits partner.
all localhost backed projects and companies now have $30K in infrastructure support.
NodeOps joins @localhosthq as an infrastructure and deployment partner.
LocalHost runs a two-month, full-time program for unconventional builders. Founders join at no cost and get access to a hardware lab, media studio, accommodation, and a focused cohort to build alongside.
The program ends with a final demo attended by leading founders and investors across the Bangalore ecosystem.
NodeOps is proud to support the next cohort with $30,000 in combined infrastructure support.
Here’s how it works:
→ $15,000 shared CreateOS credit pool for LocalHost HQ teams
→ $15,000 additional deployment support for 2–3 standout projects
If you're building with @localhosthq, you now get:
→ Free CreateOS credits to deploy immediately
→ Full-stack deployment support across frontend, backend, APIs, and databases
→ Security scanning and launch readiness checks
→ Templates to go live faster
→ Direct access to NodeOps engineering support
Great ideas should not stall at deployment.
$30,000 in infrastructure support for the next wave of builders, from prototype to production.

Wake the world's sleeping compute.
Look at the Mac nearest to you. What's it doing?
Probably nothing.
There are 100M+ Macs with Apple Silicon out there. Apple quietly made them *really* good at inference. A $3k Mac runs a 60B model at 30 watts.
Most sit idle most of the day.
Meanwhile every AI API call passes through three layers of margin before reaching the hardware. We call this the Inference Tax.
We got curious: what happens if you connect idle Macs directly to inference demand?
This is Darkbloom. Private inference network for idle Macs.
darkbloom [dot] dev -- paper + code open.
